Drugs Tested:

HairConfirm Business is a multi-drug hair follicle test that you collect to detect up to 5 of the most popular drugs of abuse up to 90 days prior. With this simple hair collection kit, the procedure is easy: the collector has to take a hair sample (1.5 in, no less than 1/2 an inch), completely fill out the Custody and Control Form, and mail it all to the laboratory for analysis using the pre-paid envelope provided. After a few business days, you can log on to a secure website to obtain your results.

**However, you will need scissors, a hair clip, and some alcohol wipes to operate this test.

Some advantages of using this hair follicle test include:

100% confidentiality

Free Collection Training Guide

Detailed analysis of drug history including assessment to identify whether the user is a low (occasional), medium (weekend/daily), or high (constant) user excluding marijuana.

Accredited Laboratory - Your sample will be tested using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) before it is reviewed and approved by Ph.D. staff scientists at a lab that is CAP accredited, CLIA, and ISO Certified.

You will be able to see the results in 2 or 3 business days.

If you are a business, using a hair drug test could prevent drug abusers from being employed. Many employers are getting more concerned with the possibility of their employees using drugs and are adopting new test methods such as the HairConfirm Business testing kit that offers 90 day hair analysis. By doing a hair test for drugs, companies may reduce the costs of having the employees performing a urine or saliva test on a regular basis.

Why should you use the hair follicle test method?

It's almost impossible to cheat (the next best thing to a blood test)

You can detect around 90 days back (depending on head or body sample)

Users can't use a special shampoo to taint it

No false positives (if the person gives the excuse of second-hand smoke)

HairConfirm Business can detect multiple uses over time, which is very useful information when compared to standard urine testing which can detect a single use. Although, there are some factors that may affect how far back a hair drug test can detect. Hair from the body seems to give a longer time than from the head when using a hair test for drugs. Metabolism plays a big part as well as the type of drugs consumed, the amount of drugs ingested, and their potency. And let's not forget the frequency of use as well. With all these factors in mind and depending on the person, drugs can stay in a hair follicle up to 4 months, on average.

Although they tend to grow at the same rate, the actual differences between head and body hair are that a sample from the body tends to stop growing at a shorter length. Although using that type of specimen with a hair test for drugs would give you the possibility of going back farther than 90 days while head hair can give you up to 90 days. In both head and body, new hair replaces dormant strands and pushes them out. When new hair grows, it takes with it any evidence of drug usage. When a hair strand is not growing (otherwise dormant), that particular sample will stop showing any new evidence of drug usage. Should that be the case, it would be advised to gather a fresh sample to re-submit the hair drug test.

What is hair testing?Since hair growth is fed by the bloodstream, the ingestion of drugs of abuse is revealed by analyzing a small sample of hair. HairConfirm's testing method measures the drug molecules embedded inside the hair shaft, eliminating external contamination as a source of a positive test result. Hair testing results can not be altered with shampoos or other external chemicals.

How accurate is hair testing?Hair testing is the most accurate and effective method of finding users of drugs of abuse. Using a small sample of hair cut at the scalp, hair analysis evaluates the amount of drug metabolites embedded inside the hair shaft.

The testing technology is designed to show the presence of drug levels which would only be consistent with the ingestion of drugs. All samples are tested using a radioimmunoassay screen. Before any positive test result is reported, the sample is subjected to a second, confirmatory test using gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC/MC), considered the gold standard for forensic drug testing.
